How do you seperate the housings on a CT26? I got the aluminum housing off just fine but the body will not seperate. I tried heating the joint with a torch and the unsing a metal chisel but no luck.

Ive got 2 good turbos but the seals are blown. I would like to be able to replace the seals rather than getting a rebuilt turbo.

Anyone have a trick?

I usually just take a screwdriver and hammer it into the joint. Little by litte it starts to come apart. Also, I've done it with the exhaust housing still on the manifold/in the car. Took a mallet and pounded the front off.

Got it all apart. I just hit it harder.

Now to find new seals.

One thing to remember is that the threads on the shaft are reverse threads.
